Owner description: Three Gothic Revival-style buildings, located on a 170-foot bluff overlooking the Ottawa River, house the offices of the members of Parliament, the House of Commons and the Senate. Free guided tours delve into Canadian history and explain the workings of the political system.

We didn't have time to go in day light and our Guests were pleasantly surprised to see an unforgettable Night time view of the Parliament Buildings. Even though it was very cold, it was worth the visit!

Another thing is that people with little children should consider not taking them because A: visitors need to be quiet because there's employees working. B: Is very annoying trying to listen to the tour guide and a child screaming in a place that has a lot of Ecco...
